[Xen-devel] [PATCH]Propagate guest MSR writes to machine MSRs immediately
Propagate guest MSR writes to machine MSRs immediately Right now, we have an exposure between the time the MSR is written and used by an instruction such as syscall. If there is a context switch and we do vmx_do_restore_msrs(), everything goes fine. But if we don''t, then we execute the syscall with the wrong MSR.
